If anyone thinks that they can out produce God without the Holy Spirit, or if you think that you can compete with someone who does operate, rely, trust in, and depend on the Holy Spirit as it pertains to anything in life, even and but especially if you are a believer, then you have bumped your head on the corner stone of stumbling and if you are not careful to carefully examine your non-Holy Spirit experience comparing your ill-gotten beliefs to the Word of God then you stand in jeopardy of goating your way though heaven. 

But Podcast Preacher my religion is not performance-based, I do not believe you can earn salvation (2 Tim 2:20, 1 Cor 3:12-15, Matt 12:36-37, Rom 14:12, John 12:48, 2 Cor 5:10, Rom 2:6, Matt 16:27, Rev 22:12, Ps. 62:12; Prov. 24:12; Jer. 17:10; 32:19; Rev. 2:23). 

So Boink on you for in thinking that way, you just hit your head on the corner stone again with such a statement. Why do we come up with excuses for walking in the flesh thinking that we are supporting a spiritual position? Look my friend the Pharisees did this and went to hell. Ok so I thought I would just wake you up. Your fight is not against the sinful preacher who teaches scripturally supported lies. It is not against the false preachers, teachers, prophets, apostles, or christs (Matt 7:15, 24:11, v24, Mark 13:22, 2 Peter 2:1-18, 2 Cor 11:5, v13, Luke 6:26, 1 John 4:1). It is against the devil always so don’t think by defending your non-Holy Spirit Christian existence is in anyway protecting the sensitive flesh of any person (Eph 6:10-18). You are defending the devil when you agree with such nonsense. Did not the devil convince Eve that Gods words originally spoken to her from His own Spirit were incomplete and possibly full of deception? Yes. You could say that if there was a bible at that time that satan used it to draw Eve and Adam into sin. And what to say of satan trying to deceive Jesus by the use of scripture in the desert? Did not Paul say that we are not unaware of the devils schemes (2 Cor 2:8-11)? 

Yes, that’s a bang opener right there and it is because active authentically born-again Christians need all hands on deck in today’s battle field and upon the harvest field, and more so, because we are not as focused on praying for the harvest in which, in the correct circumstances, that is when we are doing church Gods way, He is adding to the church daily those in which are being saved, we focus more on the deficit of today’s church, which as it was back in the days of Jesus and so it is today, we pray for laborers. The following scriptures support the totality of what I just stated right there as well as the battle (2 Cor 10:4, Eph 6:10-20, 2 Tim 2:3-4, Matt 9:35-38, Acts 2:41, 47, 4:4, 5:14, 9:31, John 6:44, 15:16).

I am going heavy on the scripture references so that you also see how the Holy Spirit is right in the mix of these things. 

And so but, for example, if you show up to a prayer meeting which is unlikely without the Holy Spirit, and decide you are going to move heaven and earth with your non-Holy Spirit inspired prayers you might just as well stay home and watch the Emmys, because you would have to put on a performance to convince anyone that you are at the feet of Jesus without the aid for getting their, the Holy Spirit, living inside of you.
